I am an experienced engineering leader, product creator, and full stack engineer. I have over a decade of broad experience with technologies, industries, and scales of operation, having founded multiple startups in the AI and Ad-Tech industries (including Augur which went through Techstars Boulder 2013 and was later acquired), worked at enterprises as notable as Microsoft and Salesforce, won over 15 hackathons, and regularly built new products for fun or freelance. My engineering often involves machine learning, web scraping, and integrating many disparate systems. Some of my more interesting personal projects include the OpenAI GPT3 .Net SDK, the AllThePeople.net social media data mining system, and a teleprompter for Google Glass. Additionally, I am experienced at presenting at conferences and managing events in both professional and entertainment contexts. I am based in San Francisco but value location flexibility.
A few years ago I took a break from the tech industry to start a 450-seat San Francisco live performance venue in the midst of a pandemic, which is now a thriving local business hosting sold-out events most days of the week. Over the past year or so I've founded a couple AI startups (https://doppler.bot and https://mindprint.ai) and numerous other projects (from domain name brainstorming to a productivity tool functionally identical to MS's recently announced recall feature), some of which are built on top of OpenAI and some of which are based on open source models. At this point it's becoming clear the recent startups I founded are probably not going mainstream, so I'm exploring what might be next for me career-wise.
I would love for my next role to utilize my top-tier engineering skills, my customer-focused product expertise, and my experience managing and growing an organization. I am open to technical co-founder roles, CTO positions, as well as entrepreneur-in-residence or new product-building opportunities within organizations of all sizes.
